Einleitungssatz
THE Chevalier Tannhauser, having lighted off his horse, stood doubtfully for a moment beneath the ombre gateway of the Venusberg, troubled with an exquisite fear lest a day's travel should have too cruelly undone the laboured niceness of his dress. Lesen Sie die erste Seite

Hoping for more
8. Februar 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
I very much enjoyed Beardsley's bizarre, effete narration. His writing style is very different from the plain, clean lines of his drawing. The text nearly smothers the reader in adjectives and tangential detail - an affectation that reinforces the description of dissipated foppery.
Unfortunately, not all of the writing is Beardsley's. His early death left this work unfinished. A "posthumous collaborator" in the 1950s finished it, perhaps to his own satisfaction but not to mine. The break in style is quite abrupt where the modern writer took over, and I found his turn of plot inauthentic. [I think the first paragraph p.80 is where the impostor began writing. See ISBN 1871592127 for a comparison text.]
The book does reproduce a few of Beardsley's wonderful illustrations. There are only a few of them, though - this book is not primarily about Beardsley's drawing. If it were, I'm sure the printing and paper would have been upgraded to show more of the pictures' detail.
Any fan of Beardsley's art will gain insight from his writing. The reader should take care, however, in distinguishing Beardsley's writing from anyone else's.
(By the way, this is not for the squeamish. This is part of Beardsley's history, and some history is not very nice.)

best erotica available
23. März 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
This erotic fiction is a very fine piece of work.For the collector of erotica this book is a must buy.The story focuses on one Tannhauser's sexual frolics in the abode of the goddess Venus.The erotica is mostly implied or subtle, which makes the book all the more fascinating instead of disgusting as some works of erotica are.All in all,a vintage literary gem.

Mezmorizingly Bizzare Love Story
28. September 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I got ahold of a used copy of this treasure, back when it was hard to find. Interested readers are so fortunate to have it back in print. One of those books that had me breathlessly mumbling incantations of how badly I wished I had written this. Clearly C.S. Watson "didn't get it." That's ok, Venus & Tannhäuser isn't for everyone. The writing is highly stylized and fantastical, with over-the-top descriptions that simultaneously parody Victorian literature, while standing as a gorgeous example of the style. There's tons of wit, humor and amazing imagery. If you're into surrealist, fun, erotic, and just generally hilarious over-the-top Victorian writing, I recommend giving this one a whirl.
